Is a "trip" an idea or a thing?There is a test question that goes like this:
¿Qué viaje prefieres comprar? Prefiero ________.Which trip do you prefer to buy? That one over there.
The correct answer is "aquel". However, this doesn't make sense to me, as a trip isn't a thing you can see/touch. It's a series of connected actions (traveling from point A to B, seeing things, doing things) and as such seems more of an abstract concept or idea than a physical thing like a coat or a skirt.
According to the lesson text, the proper use of "aquello" is when referring to an idea. As such, I would choose "aquello" as the pronoun.
Am I interpreting the use of "aquello" incorrectly, or is the answer wrong?
I looked at the comments regarding quería and querría . But I do not see anyone asking abut Quisiera as I translation for "I would like". Would that also be translated in the present.
Also, I thought that when the speaker says what she would like, that part of the sentence would not be subjunctive.Although, I think that when an English speaker says "I would like you to .. . ." as opposed to "I want you to..." the former is softer, I just have a lot of trouble with the subjunctive and to be sure I understand this part of it
How do I learn about imperatives that are irregular like “ven”....?
In this example, "El dinero no es todo pero ayuda muchísimo" , I want to use "sino que" since the rule states that "If we need a different conjugated verb in the second clause after sino, then we need to add "que" after sino."
I am a bit confused.

Usually we use Ellas van, how about this Ellas suelen ir? May I know what is this ir in this case.

Are Spanish restaurants really rated in tenedores? I would've thought that it would ha derived from Michelin stars. At least, I always assumed stars was the literal translation of whatever the French is.
Are you saying that it's unnecessary to include the direct object pronoun or that's it's incorrect to include it?
